Buffy the Vampire Slayer - 1x11 Out of Sight, Out of Mind

Tara: I don’t think this is gonna work.

Buffy: I was happy. Wherever I— was.. I was happy. At peace. I knew that everyone I cared about was alright. I knew it. Time didn’t mean anything. Nothing had form, but I was still me. You know? And I was warm. And I was loved. And I was finished. Complete. I— I don’t understand theology or dimensions or any of it really. But I think I was in heaven. And now I’m not. I was torn out of there, pulled out, by my friends. Everything here is hard and bright and violent. Everything I feel, everything I touch. This is hell. Just getting through the next moment and the one after that, knowing what I’ve lost. They can never know. Never.

Buffy Summers, Xander Harris, & Willow Rosenberg

BUFFY FANS, LISTEN TO THIS.

Buffy: I’ve always stopped them. Always won.
Giles: Yes.
Buffy:  I sacrificed Angel to save the world. I loved him so much. But I knew what was right. I don’t have that anymore. I don’t understand. I don’t know how to live in this world if these are the choices - if everything just gets stripped away. I don’t see the point. I just wish— I just wish my mom was here.

Angel: Now that’s everything, huh? No weapons, no friends, no hope. Take all that away and what’s left?
Buffy: Me.
